A digital photolithography system is provided that is capable of making smooth diagonal components (Figure 2). The system includes a computer for providing a first digital pattern to a digital pixel panel, such as a deformable mirror device (DMD). The DMD is capable of providing a first plurality of pixel elements for exposure onto a plurality of wafer sites (Figure 3b). After exposure, the wafer can be scanned a distance less than the site length. The DMD then receives a second digital pattern for exposing a second plurality of pixel elements onto the plurality of sites of the subject. The exposed second plurality of pixel elements overlaps the exposed first plurality of pixel elements (Figure 4b). This overlapping allows incremental changes to be made in the image being exposed, thereby accommodating the creation of diagonal components. |
